Roy Lewis took a quick shower, cleaned himself up, and went downstairs.
The dining room was already filled with food.
Before he even got there, he could smell the aroma of fried chicken.
“What’s the big occasion today? We’re having fried chicken?
Roy knew that Richelle Dunn didn’t usually let the kids eat junk food like this.
B0x𝔫𝙤ѵ𝑒𝙡.comBut on special days, or when there was something to celebrate, the kids could request it.
Tifanny ran over smiling, leading him to the dining room by the hand.
“Daddy, we’re celebrating you and mommy getting back together today!
Roy silently marked down this day, it was the day he and Richelle had their love rekindled.
“Babies, what do you want? Later, mommy and I will buy it for you guys’.”
Today was not only their love rekindling day but also the day their family of five truly reunited.
Upon hearing that they would receive gifts, the little ones excitedly discuss while eating.
Roy sat next to Richelle, not really listening to the children’s conversations, his eyes and mind filled with Richelie’s face.
“Today, you also need a few needles in your waist.”
However, Richelle broke into his daydreaming with a rather untimely remark.
“Huh? Isn’t rubbing medicinal liquor enough?”
Roy had slept on it and felt the pain in his waist had eased a little, so he thought it was almost better.
Richelle glanced at him, “When you were eighteen, rubbing medicinal liquor might have worked, but you’re thirty now.”
Roy paused, suddenly feeling a sense of crisis.
“Is thirty really that old?”
In the past, he had never felt much about age, but Richelle was only twenty-five, their thinking and ways of handling things were poles apart, and she was especially full of youth and vitality. So, he was somewhat apprehensive in his heart.
He was afraid Richelle would find him too old-fashioned, that they wouldn’t
have any common ground.
Roy, for the first time since childhood, felt so unconfident and began to doubt himself.
The children, who had been discussing what gifts to buy, suddenly turned their eyes towards him.
Timmy, the most fearless one, grinned and teased him.
“Daddy, you look like mommy’s uncle, don’t you think that’s old?”
Richelle knew her son was being mischievous, but she didn’t stop him, even giving Timmy a chicken leg with a suppressed laugh.
Roy touched his face, struggling to accept the blow.
An uncle?
Timothy and Timmy giggled, while Tifanny, feeling sorry for her dad, leaned against him and sweetly comforted him.
“Daddy, don’t listen to big brother’s nonsense. You’re handsome, and you and mommy are an ideal couple!”
Roy was warmed by his darling daughter’s words, but soon realized that her opinion didn’t count. After all, she had always been blindly supportive of him.
As for what Timmy said, that was only for reference, too. After all, the boy had long been siding with his mother, always picky and critical of him as a father.
So, on this matter, Richelle, one of the parties involved, had the most say. Roy looked at Richelle somewhat apprehensively, “Richelle, do you really think I look like your uncle?”
Richelle held back her laughter and tilted her head to evaluate him, “I don t
know…”
Roy’s appetite was held, he couldn’t help but frown and touched his face.
“What do you mean? Am I really that old?”
Richelle laughed, “I don’t even have an uncle. How would I know if you look like one or not?”
Then, Timmy and Timothy joined in the laughter as well.
It was then that Roy Lewis realized he had been tricked by Richelle Dunn and their two sons.
Roy’s uneasiness dissipated, but he felt wronged. He reached out to hug his daughter, rubbing his face against her little one.
“Ah, Tifanny loves Daddy the most!”
Tifanny giggled and pressed her little face against his. She propped herself up and handed him a chicken wing, “Daddy, have a chicken wing, and cheer up. Don’t mind brother and them.”
As soon as Roy sat down, Richelle placed a bowl of rice porridge and a box of steamed dumplings in front of him, saying that he needed to eat light meals for a few days.
But he couldn’t disregard his daughter’s intentions, so he looked at Richelle with some difficulty.
Richelle didn’t expect the once arrogantly self-centered Master Lewis to now
be at the mercy of three little ones.
She couldn’t help but feel some sympathy for his humble future circumstances.
“Go ahead, it’s your daughter’s heartfelt gesture after all.
However, this was just a minor episode in the beginning. Afterward, the family of five enjoyed a harmonious and happy lunch together.
When Richelle cleaned up, the children also helped. Roy, who now belonged in the family, felt that he, as the head of the household, should set a good example, so he offered to help as well.
Richelle hurriedly stopped him, “Roy Lewis, just sit on the sofa and don t move.”
“I’m fine…”
But as soon as he finished speaking, the muscle he had pulled while bending over caused him to hiss in pain.
Richelle immediately ordered him back to the bedroom to lie down. Then she and the children tidied up and watched the kids go to sleep before opening the guest room door.
“Roy Lewis, why don’t you get an X-ray to see if there’s any bone injury?” Richelle, lowering her head in preparation, spoke to Roy who was lying on the bed.
Roy, on the other hand, was very insistent, “No need, I know my body best. I’ve just been lacking exercise lately, which caused me to pull a muscle. It hasn’t injured the bone, so there’s no need to make a big deal out of it.”
Wouldn’t the mother and children directly order him to bed rest for a few days if he was already classified as weak by the four of them and then went for an X-ray? His tall and strong fatherly image hadn’t been established yet, and it was about to collapse.
Richelle didn’t know why he was so insistent. However, she had checked him out thoroughly based on her experience the night before, and the possibility of a bone injury was not significant.
So, she didn’t insist much either.
“Alright, let’s try acupuncture first, and if that doesn’t work, we’ll go to the hospital.”
Roy stared at her face with a somewhat proud expression.
“Isn’t going to the hospital just to see a doctor? Isn’t my Dr. Dunn more authoritative and impressive than the doctors in the hospital?
Richelle smiled, “Yes, your Dr. Dunn is the best. Now lie down, or else, the formidable Dr. Dunn will scold you.”
As Richelle approached the bed with the acupuncture needles, Roy’s gaze naturally landed on her face.
Richelle felt his burning eyes and blushed slightly. She glared at him, saying,
“What, don’t you recognize me?”
Roy touched her face with a regretful expression.
“If I had recognized you earlier, we wouldn’t have wasted more than two months.”
However, Richelle didn’t agree with him, “Even if you did recognize me, I wouldn’t have admitted it.”
At that time, Richelle was constantly on guard against Roy, who might try to snatch her children.
If he had really recognized her, she would have packed up and run away, not willingly stayed here, gradually understanding and getting closer to him. That kind of outcome would have been a hundred times worse than it is now.
But she couldn’t say these words out loud.
Because the present Roy seemed to be full of pink bubbles and gentle affection, as if wanting to pour it all out in front of her.
If she told the truth, she would undoubtedly be raining on his parade.
Roy fell silent, seriously considering her position at the time. He had to admit that the present outcome was blissful for both him and her.
Although there were some minor twists and turns in between, at least now, after explanations and communication, their hearts were clear of any ill feelings..
